What else are you plugged into on the interweb? Working nights at a tech company gives me a lot of logged in time, here are some of the places I frequent: Last.fm - A site that tracks your listening habits on your computer and/or iPod. You can find my profile here. Rainy Day Magazine - A Boston based tech site that has do-it yourself stuff and random reviews of products. Plus they do giveaways on occasion and I recently won a pretty cool hat. Livejournal - Yes, I'm lame and have a live journal but when I'm completely out of stuff to do it keeps me entertained. If you care you can check it out here. Seven Days - An entertainment newspaper here in VT. They have a lot of good local arts news and I've done a few reviews for them in the past including the Paranoid Social Club album. A few others: Mike Doughty's BlogPSC Message BoardPunchline MagazineGrand Am Owners Club |

Most of my sites would probably be a little boring for the crowd here (mostly security/hacking sites), but here's a couple that someone might like: Build Your Own Arcade Controls - This site contains tons of information on how to build your own arcade machine (like Pac-Man, Street Fighter, etc). I have built a few of these, mostly for friends, but I have my own game room in my house with an arcade machine, pinball machine, and some consoles (seen here). GameDev.Net - I also program games and such in my free time (which is few and far between). This site is a great resource for that. It covers everything from programming to art to music for computer games. You can also see and download some of my completed games, applications, and Dashboard widgets here. 38 Pitches - Completing my geek trifecta, I'm also a baseball geek. This site is a blog written by Curt Schilling of the Boston Red Sox. It's interesting reading a major leaguer's perspective on things. |

used to read FARK daily but I work outside now and don't have enough time to read everything (the headlines + comments were the best part). The Photoshop contests are pretty awesome too, I used to do them a couple years ago, but I was a "liter." www.bostondirtdogs.com is another daily read, a Red Sox news "blog." They became pretty prominent when they scooped all the other news media on the A-Rod talks I think.. or maybe Schilling. I forget  They were absorbed by the Boston Globe but remain an entertaining "insider" outlet. |

I'd like to work my magic with permission from the band. No money wanted or needed, i've got a digital video cam, panasonic ag-dvc200p and a lighting kit: please PLEASE oober times 12 please hook me up with a press pass at the upcomming killington show in november. my friends back home in rutland are beggin me to come home, but school is my priority...and i figure "why not get two birds stoned with one nug?"

Mr. K, someone may reply to you here (I know J Ward and somebody from management check here every now and then) but this may not be the best place to try and get an answer on a press pass. You may want to head on over to the Rustic Myspace and shoot them a message, or even PM J Ward from here and see what he has to say. I'm hoping you hear something because we'd all love to see the fruits of your efforts if you can get the OK. Best of luck!

Mr. K, shoot me a PM I can give you an email address to try, too. I'd just PM it to you, but you haven't registered an account here.
